I can't sleep.

Crabbe and/or Goyle are snoring and the sound muffling charms on my bedcurtains are gone and I don't remember the incantation and I think it's in a book in my trunk but it's cold out there and besides I don't want to wake anyone up.

I've had the Cruciatus curse cast on me before. But I asked for it, so I don't reckon it was as painful as it could have been because he didn't really want to hurt me and you've got to really want it.

Astronomy was wizard last night. There wasn't any moon so you could see everything. Michael and I shared a telescope and we looked at the Andromeda Galaxy.

Is anyone else awake?

Because I wanted to know what it felt like.

I can't imagine convincing one of my parents to do that. Being able to convince one of my parents.

I think our parents are very different. Father said it was brave of me. He says that knowledge is power.

Mum and dad say the same thing, but I think they mean it in a different way.

[alt_theodore]

I don't think it was very brave of me. It would have been braver to not know.

[alt_michael]

I don't think so. I don't know. I wouldn't be able to ask the same thing, I don't think.
